Jiangshan Fengwuzhi

Chapter 194 Destruction (Part )

"Master Eleven, we are all the Marshal's most loyal subordinates!"

"puff."

Screams rang out one after another, and Gu Jingnian fought his way into the deepest part of the refining field.

Dong Cailiang was afraid, but he didn't dare to go too far away from him, so he followed him timidly.

The space in front becomes more open, with two large pools.

Next to one of the pools, there were a few newt men lying, with their cloaca facing the pool and mucus flowing into it.

Seeing this scene, Dong Cailiang couldn't help but dry heave.

Since he came to discuss cooperation with Gu Beiming on behalf of Yin Yuhe, he had previously understood the habits of the salamanders and knew that they needed mucus for regeneration, but only now did he realize how the mucus came from.

With great difficulty, he suppressed the feeling of nausea.

But when he looked at the pool next to him, the nausea that he had just suppressed instantly came up again.

This pool was bigger, and several newt people were fishing something out of it and putting it into their mouths.

From a distance, you can't see clearly what they are fishing for.

When I got closer, I saw that they were leeches still wriggling.

At the same time, faint screams were heard from the pool, as if there were a few weak people inside.

Dong Cailiang leaned over to take a look and quickly covered his mouth.

He didn't see anyone in the pond, only densely packed, fat leeches.

The scene was so shocking that it was beyond words.

Gu Jingnian frowned, took a can of kerosene and poured it over, then threw a torch over and set the pool on fire.

The leeches were afraid of fire and swarmed toward the outside of the pond.

The newts were so scared that they turned around and ran away, stepping on the fat leeches and splashing blood.

"vomit!"

Dong Cailiang couldn't hold it in any longer and vomited.

Even Gu Jingnian found the scene disgusting. He had seen a similar pool in the underground palace of Yongjing, but the underground palace had been dried up by a fire at that time, so the scene was not so "vivid".

But this is not the most terrifying thing.

After most of the leeches in the pool had flowed out, a few half-dead people appeared.

Those people were covered with leeches. Even with flames burning nearby, the leeches still clung to them and refused to come off, sucking their flesh until only skin and bones were left. They were dying and looked like neither human nor ghost.

Seeing that they were obviously dead, Gu Jingnian simply pulled out his arrows and shot them one by one to relieve their pain.

As more leeches in the pool fled, layers of white bones were revealed underneath.

It seems that the mucus comes from the body of the salamander, and in order for the salamander to produce mucus, it needs to be fed with leeches.

The resurrection of Yin Kuo and Yin Yucheng came at the cost of countless lives.

The raging flames burned everything. In the firelight, Gu Jingnian turned his head and glanced at Dong Cailiang, as if asking a question.

——"Are you here because Yin Yuhe also wants to become a salamander in this way?"

Dong Cailiang understood the meaning of Gu Jingnian's arrogant eyes.

He was frightened at first, and then a little offended.

No matter what the situation is in this refining field, and no matter whether Yin Yuhe intends to cooperate with Gu Beiming, he is still the king and the father.

As a minister and a son, Gu Jingnian's behavior is essentially rebellious.

Deep down in his heart, Dong Cailiang didn't like rebellious people, but at this moment he could only submit to Gu Jingnian's tyranny and nodded submissively.

"Let's go."

Gu Jingnian said calmly and continued walking forward.

Dong Cailiang hurriedly followed him and walked into a door at the back. As he entered, he was surprised again and his eyes were filled with shock.

In front of him were nearly twenty large jars. On top of each jar was a wooden frame with a person tied to it.

Dong Cailiang's gaze moved across the faces of these people, and the shock in his eyes became more and more intense. Finally, his knees softened involuntarily and he fell to the ground.

"The... The Retired Emperor, so... so many Retired Emperors..."

Those nearly twenty people tied to the racks were all Yin Kuo.

At once, more than ten Yin Kuos opened their eyes at the same time and looked at Dong Cailiang. It was a spectacular scene.

These Yin Kuo were resurrected from a small amount of body and a large amount of mucus, and retained very few memories, so they did not recognize Dong Cailiang when they saw him, but they still retained the imperial aura and were extremely majestic.

"Who is coming?!" more than ten Yin Kuo asked at the same time.

Dong Cailiang immediately prostrated himself on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty...Your Majesty..."

He had clearly come to pacify Yin Kuo, but at this moment his lips were trembling and he could not speak.

next moment.

"puff."

Gu Jingnian had already raised his knife and walked forward, stabbing it into the chest of Yin Kuo who was hanging on the rack.

Soon, he realized that he could not kill Yin Kuo in this way, so he simply picked up a torch and lit the shelf next to him, and threw Yin Kuo into the fire until he was burned to death.

"Traitor!"

The remaining Yin Kuos all started cursing.

"Traitor, do you know who I am?!"

Dong Cailiang also hurriedly said: "Chengye Hou, how about..."

He didn't know what he wanted, maybe to leave Yin Kuo alive.

But Gu Jingnian ignored him and threw Yin Kuo into the fire one by one and burned them to death.

There were enough Yin Kuos here for him to kill to his heart's content. He counted as he burned them until all of them were burned to death. He counted and there were seventeen of them.

"Rebellious ministers and traitors!"

As the last angry roar disappeared in the fire, the secret room finally became quiet.

Dong Cailiang couldn't believe that Gu Jingnian had killed all the Yin Kuos like this. He looked around and murmured, "Chengye Hou, you..."

"Let's go."

Gu Jingnian's tone was still emotionless as he continued to sweep the refining field.

He saw an alchemist practicing pulling the blood out of a person's skin before escaping. There were many corpses lying on the ground, all of whom died due to the alchemists' mistakes. These corpses were originally intended to be thrown into the leech pool.

Only then did he realize how many innocent lives were sacrificed in order for Liang Xin to skillfully exchange blood between him and Gu Beiming.

Those alchemists were forced by Gu Jingnian to nowhere to escape, and finally turned around and begged, "Sir, we are all the Marshal's confidants who have been carefully cultivated."

Dong Cailiang felt a pity when he saw this, thinking that these alchemists were rare talents. After hesitating for a while, he finally spoke.

"Marquis Chengye, perhaps we should keep them as witnesses..."

"Pfft, pfft, pfft."

Gu Jingnian simply swung his knife and answered with this neat movement.

Dong Cailiang closed his eyes in pain, unable to bear to watch any longer.

This time, His Majesty sent him to discuss cooperation with Gu Beiming. Judging from the situation, Gu Jingnian had clearly guessed His Majesty's thoughts, but he was still so determined, and it seemed that he had no intention of fulfilling His Majesty's wishes at all.

It’s a pity that he came here on orders, but I’m afraid he won’t be able to fulfill the order.

Finally, all the refiners were killed.

Gu Jingnian actually knew that doing so would not eliminate the evil of alchemy.

In fact, his own sins were no less serious than those of these refiners.

But it is too easy to be confused in one's life. The only thing one can do is to keep his original intention and fight to the end against those who once persecuted him.

He threw down the knife and walked straight out.

Dong Cailiang hurriedly followed and asked cautiously, "Marquis Chengye, if Marshal Gu asks you about your behavior today, how will you explain it?"

"This is my explanation." Gu Jingnian pointed casually, "The reason I did this is to advise my father."

He walked without stopping, saying as he walked: "As a minister or a son, blindly obeying the king and father is not true loyalty and filial piety. When the king and father make mistakes, being able to speak out and make direct criticisms is loyalty and filial piety."

Dong Cailiang was slightly stunned, and understood the implication of Gu Jingnian's words. He thought, it seems that these words are also addressed to His Majesty.

"What Marquis Chengye said is very true, but whether my father is right or wrong is not something you and I can decide."

Gu Jingnian ignored it.

He was in a hurry to go back and see Lu Anran, but after killing so many people, he didn't care about anything else and walked towards the Marshal's Mansion under the astonished gazes of the soldiers.

Only after seeing that Lu Anran was fine under the care of the guards and the old woman did he feel relieved. He thought to himself that he should not leave for so long next time, then he quickly washed up and picked up the child again.

It was as if he had just gone out and brought back a jar of soy sauce.

But what he did today has actually changed too many things.
